Chapter 65: Messed with your mind
She looked down to Yoda who was crouching in front of her holding his left leg. "I can understand if you trying to be polite in front of other people. But no one here! So, drop your nonsense acting! You calling me 'Miss' give me goosebumps, don't you know?"
"Miss Senja please, don't give me hard time" Yoda knelt again with trouble expression.
"Oh, right! There is something I want to ask you" She was crouching down as she said those words. Judging by her surrounding, she knew it was only the two of them at the stables, and then she continues. "Did second prince ask you something?"
His body reactions give away the answer. Yoda body stiffened upon hearing her question.
"What the things he asked you?"
"Miss… miss Senja" He stuttered.
Senja sighed heavy breath. "Now, it was only the two of us. Can you stop being such a pain in the ass?"
Pain in the ass?
Yoda was squinted his eyes and looked straight to her eyes. There, before his eyes, he could see clearly the disdain look inside her eyes upon seeing his respectful gesture towards her.
Now, the girl was sitting on haystack with unruly manner. "Miss Senja, I…" He just started but Senja already cut him in his mid sentence.
"Can you treat me like before? You are my friend and I don't wish for my friend to kneel every time they have chance" She said with sullen expression.
Looking Senja with her unreserved attitude and the friendly aura around her make him relaxed a bit. He sat on the ground and sighed helplessly "Yes, he asked me some questions a few days after we arrive"
"What question?"
"He asked about that night. Why I didn't escaped as Lieutenant Utara order so, I answer the truth and told him about the stone that you were looking for"
"Who else present when you talk about this?"
"There were only Commander Xiao and Lieutenant Utara at that time"
"And what else you told them?"
"Only that"
"Did you…" Senja was hesitating for awhile before she made up her mind and asking her question. "Did you tell them about how I help you when Zodasian soldier stabbed you?"
Yoda eyes grew bigger with fear, he was crawling back a few step before asking with stuttered voice. "You… you really admit it now? That you… you are a mind controller?"
"Mind controller? It wasn't the right terms I think. It was hypnotized"
"It was same"
Senja knitted her brows and give up the explanation. She wouldn't waste her energy on this explanation matter. "So, you tell them?"
"You are mind controller?"
"I prefer hypnotized terms"
"So, you are?"
"…" why he is insisting to make me a mind controller? "Look. I can hypnotize people for short period of time but not control their mind. Those are 2 different things and I can't use it casually. It required a lot of energy to do that"
His gaping mouth was very big and his eyes gleam with astonishment.
"I never thought that I would be able to see mind controller in my lifetime!" He exclaimed excitedly and his initial fear expression swift gradually with a worship face.
Senja obviously knew how he was feeling towards her. Then she felt headache by his sudden excitement.
"Can you do it now?"
"Do what?" Ask Senja felt annoyed.
"That the mind controller thing" Even his words was full with excitement.
Senja mouth twitched when she heard the way he put his sentences.
He seems not to listen to what I said. It is hypnotized, alright?
She lean to the wood pole behind her and crossed her arms lazily while looking at him and with languid tone she said threateningly. "You want me to mess with your mind?" a faint smile curled in her lips, make her look dangerous.
